ABSTRACT

This paper presents the development of a smart home using Google assistant. The idea behind this is to control home devices with voice. On the market there are many devices available to do that. But making your own is awesome. Build your personal assistant that will do the work for you. Just your assistant requires voice commands. In this project single board computer i.e. Raspberry pi 3 is used whichincludes creating Adafruit account then linking to IFTTT website then adding to Google Assistant for voice commands. In this home automation appliances like Bulb, cooling Fan and Motor are used which can be controlled easily using the Google assistance from the voice control. Here we will install Google assistance in the raspberry pi and Raspberry pi will be attached with a mike which takes all the voice commands through which it will automatically control the home alliances. As the user give the voice command to the mike according to that the home appliances can be switched ON/OFF accordingly 

INTRODUCTION

The idea behind this is to control home devices with voice. On the market there are many devices available to do that. But making your own is awesome. Build your personal assistant that will do the work for you. Just your assistant requires voice commands. According to voice commands home appliances will switch ON/OFF. 

EXISTING SYSTEM

In the existing system, IOT i.e. IEEE 802.11 b/g/n is used in order to control the home appliances where the home appliances are remotely controlled using a web page buttons, where we have to go to the particular link and from there we can press buttons in order to control the home appliance.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

In this proposed system, Raspberry pi is installed with an Adafruit account with IFTTT website then adding to Google Assistant for voice commands. A USB Mike is provided with the raspberry pi to give the voice commands to control the home appliances.

BLOCK DIAGRAM

BLOCK DIAGRAM EXPLANATION

• In this project USB Mike is used to take the voice commands.
• Raspberry pi is linked with Adafruit account with IFTTT website which is connected to the Google assistance cloud. 
• Home appliances like BULB, FAN and MOTOR are connected to the Raspberry pi.
• Connect power supply for Raspberry pi
• Plug the HDMI cable in Raspberry pi from the monitor using VGA to HDMI converter cable
• Connect USB Mouse and USB keyboard to the Raspberry pi

HARDWARE REQUIRED

• Raspberry Pi
• USB MIKE
• BULB
• FAN
• MOTOR
• SD card
• Monitor

SOFTWARE REQUIRED

• Raspbian Jessie
• Google assistance.
• Language – Linux
• Python

CONCLUSION

According to this system, a smart voice control home automation system is deployed into the Raspberry pi using Adafruit account with IFTTT website and Google assistance API within it. Through which a user can control the home appliances just by giving the voice as input.
